Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • No pets allowed — If you're travelling with an animal, this isn't the place — the policy is clearly no pets.
  • Limited room options for some guests — The Classic Superior Double Room is listed with two single beds, so those expecting a king bed in that category may be disappointed, though other room types do offer kings.
  • Check-in only starts at 14:00 — If you arrive early in Hanoi, you may need to wait or store your luggage — the check-in window begins at 14:00.
  • No parking listed — While some guests mention free parking, the hotel's policies don't explicitly confirm parking availability, so it's worth checking directly if you're driving.
